MUSLIM CLERIC INSISTS 20 'SUITCASE NUKES' IN U.S.

A leading Muslim cleric Shaykh Hisham Kabbani, founder of the Islamic Supreme Council of America (ISCA), insists bin Ladens network has bought more than 20 nuclear warheads carried in suitcases.

In 1999 Kabbani first warned the U.S. State Department of bin Laden's impending terrorism.

He told the U.S. Government bin Laden was training suicide bombers in Afghanistan ready to move to any part of the world.

Kabbani said the nuclear weapons, sometimes referred to as "suitcase bombs", were sold by the Russian mafia.

I hope someone in the FBI is taking this seriously and following up on it.

sounds to me that we need to arrest this guy and detain him and his followers as material witnesses.

"Why go to all that trouble if you have ready-made ones?"

I'm guessing all the things that were found were from a class room.

Now, we know that the FBI has been told that the 5000 Muslims in America they want to interview would not talk, that they are too frightened...so you have come up with something that is going to make them more afraid of the terrorists they are protecting.

If they are told the terrorists might have nukes, then they might be more willing to tell what they know.

Call it wishful thinking.

"If there were 20 suitcase nukes in the good ole' USA they would pick up signatures on Interspectral Thermal Imaging satellites equipped with GammaCams....In addition, local agencies would pick up the signatures with radiation detection pagers...."

Yup.....and I read somewhere that they are about to wear the streets of DC out running around with some small radiation monitors.

Could be pick up the 'dirty bombs' with Thermal Imaging and Radiation Pagers or is there some kind of a shield to conceal it.

That warning on FOX about us being on the highest alert since the Cuban Missile Crisis I think might have been referring to a sitation such as this.

>My son lives in LA. (I know you didn't mean it though.)

I instantly and officially apologize to ALL FREEPERS who live in LA and all FREEPERS who have family in LA.

I'm sorry.

I was, you know, making a _real bad joke_ about the "entertainment" business being headquartered there and all that horrible lot... (I should have given my typing more thought, though.)

And detonating them will DESTROY the Middle East, not America.

Yeah, but I'm sure he was thinking more of Hollywood, Barbara Streisand, and the UCLA football team. Just kidding, we all love the PRK here on FR.

Don't we have some sort of chopper to monitor radiation levels in big cities, I doubt these clowns could conceal 20 of these and not show up on a scanner somewhere..

As I recall from my childhood, the guy on the left had a suitcase.
